The rate of ascent is also known as the slope. To find the slope, we will follow the steps below.

Step 1) Choose two points on the line

Point 1: (4, 500)

Point 2: (8, 1000)

Step 2) Use the slope formula to find the slope

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (1000 - 500) / (8 - 4)

m = 500 / 4

m = 125 feet per minute

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

15 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

6 cones 9 cones

------------ = --------------

10 dollars x dollars

Using cross products

6*x = 10 *9

6x = 90

Divide each side by 6

6x/6 = 90/6

x = 15

What is the value of x?

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

We are told our volume is 500pi/3, so we fill that in and solve for r:

$\frac{500\pi}{3}=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Start by multiplying both sides by 3 over 4 pi:

$(\frac{3}{4\pi})\frac{500\pi}{3}=(\frac{3}{4\pi})\frac{4\pi}{3}r^3$

Simplifying gives us

$125=r^3$

Take the cubed root of both sides to get that

r = 5

two people were doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes then they stopped for lunch at 1:20pm at what time did they start doin

MrMuchimi

Answer: The answer would be at 11:45.

Step-by-step explanation: First I though, if they stoppedd for lunch at 1:20 and they've been doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes, I would subtract. 1 hour taken away from 1:20 would be 12:20. Then, since it would be hard to subtract 35 minutes from 12:20, 35 minutes - 20 minutes = 15 minutes. 12:20 subtract 20 minutes = 12:00. 12:00 - 15 minutes equal to 11:45. I hope this helps. I know this explanation can be confusing but it's the best I can do at the moment.
